Keichii walked over and kneeled down. He shuffled through his pockets for a minute--damn cargo pants--before deciding he did not, in fact, have a pen on him. He sighed and pulled out a kunai instead and made a tiny incision on his exposed arm. He returned the kunai to its pocket and made a couple hand signs. A thin trail of blood floated up off his arm and laid itself across the line Maha specified on the scroll.
Keichii Shiro - Yukikage
His name clearly read across the line in a bright vermillion. Keichii released the jutsu and it seeped into the paper and darkened to a reddish-brown.
It still seemed to glow pretty bright, at least to Keichii it did. He smiled peacefully. Where was Rakutsu? They had work to do back home.
With the Tengu gone, Keichii could rest easily, confident his sister, Akai, would be okay with the other shinobi she was protecting. They were in good hands.
"Anythin' else?" he smiled up at Maha.

"... Nah," she said smiling, looking off into the direction of the sun, "... That's it... Thanks, hon."
After much silence though, she then let out a sigh and looked at him as she brushed back her hair, "Sorry about the mess. I'll help you clean it, don't worry. Buuuut... You gotta do me a favor and find a way for me to carry that scroll; I'm not lugging that thing around without help," she said, blushing a bit as she grinned sheepishly.

 "I can help ya out with that, if chicken limbs here can't handle it." The Mizukage came walking onto the scene. She had been heading back to the other Mist nin, when she figured she'd check to see if Keichii and Rakutsu were alive. Luckily they were. "Hey kid, good ta see ya in one piece." she joked. She was smiling at him. Just smiling. Not deviously, or maliciously or wildly with blood-lust. In the back of her mind she was amazed that she was acting so friendly to a foriegn shinobi. Absolutely amazed. The first time she saw Keichii and his sisters in the Medic Ward she just remembered thinking- 'I want these ******** brats outta my village!' But she actually though of him as.... well she would say friend but then she'd sound sappy! But she forgot she'd already said so while she was drunk. She still was- she was just hiding it really well.

 Keichii stood up and continued to smile serenely. "No problem," he replied softly, and then,
"OI! RAKUTSU! GETCHER LAZY a** OVER HERE AN' HELP!"
Old habits die hard. He managed to shout that without ceasing his pleasant smile either. Creepy.
He smiled over at the Mizukage, not bothering to question how she got over here so fast without him noticing. Weeks ago, he would have been terrified, but now... eh, now he was hardly intimidated at all! He'd use the word "inspired" but... that'd ruin his image, now wouldn't it?

"Chicken limbs?" Maha mused as she raised a brow, hand on hip, "Listen you, you got some nerve telling me--"
Then it hit her. "Wait... You're Suijin? Mizukage?"
... She heard stories about this woman. Frightening stories, but the woman actually existed, believe it or not.
"Pleasure," she said, smiling as she nodded, "And thanks. Name's Maha. Maha Hatanari. Leader of the Uzumaki Alliance. Well, at least I was."

Keichii's face was something between a blush and a grimace. "Ah think the 'chicken limbs' comment was fer me..." Damn he hated the Tengu all the more for ripping his coat to shreds. He folded his skinny arms across his chest defensively and glared at nothing in particular. Where the hell was Rakutsu.

Rakutsu pulled her gaze away from the scenery. ''Ey, Shaddup! Quit your damn squawking!'' She grumbled while crossing her arms. Rakutsu wasn't fond of being ordered around by her brother. She'd eventually get used to it. . .One day, When she's dead maybe. When she got near enough to Keichii she noticed Suijin. Her mood changed totally. ''Suijin! Your here~!'' She said grinning happily.  ι'll pяoвαвlγ εnd up cяγιng

"Hmph," Maha smirked, looking him over a bit before grinning, "You don't look that bad. Believe me, I've seen skinnier."
Too right; Jukai was skinnier that him. And that man was old.
"... This your friend?" she nodded toward Rakatsu.
The girl looked a bit weird to her; interesting, but weird.
Something told her she could learn to like this girl; if the met on different terms.

"That I am." the Mizukage nodded. When she gave Suijin her name, it instantly clicked in her memory. She'd heard that name from Sanae before the battle had started. So this was who was supposed to be in charge of the Uzumaki Alliance. She raised an eyebrow. "So you're the one who left that blue-haired perv in charge?" She didn't say it accusingly, she'd had one too many for that. But she hadn't been all too pleased when she had learned Inkei was head of the alliance; not after his little comment. "And of course 'chicken limbs' was meant for him! I swear I never felt a more scrawny arm over my shoulder when I was smashed in my life!" she chuckled. Then noticed Rakutsu. She swung a chakra vector meant to smack Raku in the back of the head. "Ya know Shouta's went into a hissy fit when 'e heard you ran off right at that thing!" she scolded, jabbing a finger at the crater where the giant Tengu had once stood. "Me and Dev are never gonna hear the end of this." she sighed.

"Yeah..." she said, smiling coolly, "That'd be me. I... Never really left. I just got lost was all."
She then looked over at Keichii and giggled, "You sure? I think he's kinda cute for a skinny guy. Buuut... I'm not into kages," she said, smiling playfully as she batted her eyes, flashing them a famous 'Machiya' smile as she shifted her weight back on her right leg.

Keichii's glare didn't subside, but his grip on his torso loosened. He glared from Rakutsu to the scroll in an attempt at telepathically ordering his sister to pick it up.
"This is my littlest sister," he stated a little too bluntly to be polite. The danger was gone so he was free to be snarky to Rakutsu until his deathbed. "Rakutsu," he introduced.
"Rakutsu," this time he was talking to the other Snow-nin, "yer helpin' transport this treaty-scroll to... somewhere. It's for the sake'a world peace an' all so ya can't refuse."
Keichii sent Maha a fairly bland look, "Bein' Yukikage ain't much diff'rnt than usual. Then again, I got like... two, nah, one ninja at my disposal," he glanced back at Rakutsu to make sure she was doing something about the scroll, "See, mah other younger sister's som'ere up in the mountains helpin' refugees an' such. Knowin' her, she'll create 'er own tribe a'feral children 'er somethin' an' live as one'a the mountain folk..."
He ignored Maha's comment, but the blush shown through his pasty skin.

"That sounds about nice. And don't worry about that now," she said, waving a hand at Rakutsu, "I'm gonna stick around for a while. Help you fix up this place if it's alright. After all, I am the leader of the alliance, right?" she chuckled, smiling wryly as nodded to Keichii, "You just take make sure you take care of yourself after I leave here, got it? We went through hell and back because of this damn alliance."

 ''Gah! I-i'm sorry!'' She cried, quickly dropping to her knee's, covering her head with her hands, trying to avoid the Mizukage's wrath. ''I swear i won't do it again!'' She said apologetically. But that quickly subsided when she heard Keichii ordering her around. . again! ''So. . your volunteering the only Snow nin you have? meaning. . if you fall in a icy lake or something. . .Nobody would be there to help you?'' Rakutsu replied with a smile as she uncovered her head. ''Sounds good to me!'' At this point it didn't matter anyways. She still needed to pay off her debt. Of course, She felt THAT obligated to keep her promise. Once she was able to get back on her feet again she turned her gaze to Maha and smiled kindly. ''Nice to meet you!'' She bowed her head respectfully, still keeping an eye on the Mizukage. She was happy to see Suijin. But she did have a right to be mad at Rakutsu. After all. . taking off like that really was irresponsible. She could only imagine how the others felt. She'd have to apologize to Dev and Shouta as well for being so selfish. Rakutsu sighed, shaking off her thoughts. ''Are you sure? I'd feel bad if you did it all by yourself.'' She said calmly giving Maha a friendly smile. ι'll pяoвαвlγ εnd up cяγιng

Suijin smiled. "Ya won't be alone. I said I would send people from Mist to help and I intend to keep that promise." she pulled out a bottle of sake and pulled off the top with her teeth. It had been well over an hour since the Suna medic said she shouldn't drink. She took a gulp. She was gonna need a bit more in her system in order to say what she was trying to force herself to say... "It's the least I can for my comrades in Snow."
